Ankle support boots

[Diggerdavey]

Hi, does anyone have any suggestions for work boots with decent ankle support? I’ve suffered a broken ankle (not at work) so going forward I would like to have a boot which will offer decent support or bracing for ankles so that I don’t suffer any undue strain on ankles
Many thanks

pair of ski boots springs to mind, but not seen any with steel toe caps

How much you want to spend? Id look at a decent high forest style boot like HAIX or hanwag bit won't be cheap..

Obviously no one wants to spend more than necessary however the break was pretty bad. Ended up with 10 screws and a few plates so I’d rather take care of what is inevitably going to be a weak point now. Thank you for your recommendations

Checked those out. The HAIX look great but sadly look to only go to size 12.

Arbortec Fellhunter or Profell boots are both very good.

How about Redback but wear a decent support, they really are hell of a comfy boot.

Solid gear Pheonix GTX boots are now my go to boots. I believe they offer a high version although not tried. Boa laces are the mutts nuts and I can’t recommend them high enough.

I had trouble with my ankles for a while but iv started wearing CAT gravel premium boots in size 13 and I like them and not had ankle issues since the change.

Viagra supposed to be good for that

the dewalt composite boots are good BUT they do fall apart too quick for my liking. light and comfortable though.

Arbortec Fellhunter or Profell boots are both very good.

Getting some brown polish, usually they'd be relegated to their proper use by now and just soaked in dubbin.
Really hoping that the Arbortec Fellhunters become available again, seem to be "awaiting C.E. recertification" for a while now ...... and they are European made
